Faxing with Smart Panel

Your EPSON Stylus Scan works with your Smart Panel software and the modem in your computer to send and receive faxes. In addition, all incoming faxes can be automatically printed or stored on your hard drive (Windows only).

Using the Scan to Fax utility on the Smart Panel is just like using a fax machine on your computer screen. Follow the instructions in this section for:

Customizing Scan to Fax

tip:

If your document doesn’t exist on paper, you don’t have to print it out and scan it. You can use your fax utility alone to fax documents that you create on your computer.

You need to have a modem installed in or connected to your computer and connected to a phone line. If you have an external modem, make sure it’s turned on. Then follow these steps:

1.Place the document you want to fax face down on the document table and close the document cover. (See “Positioning the Original Document” on page 20 for details on placing your document.)

2.Do one of the following to open the EPSON Smart Panel:
